Chamberlain correspondence: There
are many reports by the grapevine
line that the Northwestern railroad will
build from Ynnkton along the river to
form a connection with their main line
at Blunt. The superstition IS that the
route will run ten or twelve miles east
OF the river. 1t certainly will be q yslu-
able line when built. Chamberlain will
make a move to divert it into it's portals
Should it not be practicable to do so, il
will do the county great good anyway,
and the perple are glad there Is a pros
poet of another road coming into the
comfy.
Mitchell Republican: Referring &C
the item which recently appeared in the
columns of the Yankton Press and Da'
kotaian, relative to the ecclesiastical
division If Dakota into two Catholic
diooeses, v . are informed by a prominent
clergyman of north Dakota that the sub
ject of division has already received tht
sanction of the pope, and that affairs art
now ripe for the change.
The clergyman above referred to state
that q meeting of the bishops of thii
province will be held in Milwaukee OF
Thursday next. August 4ta, and at whici
the most Rev. Michael Hess. ID. D,
archbishop of Milwaukee, will preside
There will be present also the following
named suffragan prelates: TIL
, Right Rev. Bishops Ireland and Grac
, of st. Paul MINI, Bishops Leidenbusl
/, of st. Cload; Katger and Flasoh of Gree
Bay and La Crosse, Wis; Vertin Of Mar
: quette diocease, and Marty OF Dakota
: From what we can CLEAN from other reli
: able sources, we can safely assert tina
Mitchell will be selected as the cathe
: dral city. which will be foreyermore th
headquarters of the Catholic church j
q southern Dakota. Bishop Marty ha
b made frequent trips through his hithert
extensive diocese and we doubt NO
whether in the entire territory he ha
Q got another congregation that IN poIr
r of strength and wealth excels Mitchell
= The society IN our city can boas
to-day of close to 500 members
g The church 10 in @ hourish1n
condition and the SISTERS schoe
o erected last summes, through the exer
/ tions Of the present pastor, Rev. Gee
Sheehap, is another Indication shown
the strength of Mitchell. Yankton
past years was the headquarters OF IL
Catholic church but now affairs a,
changing end the fountain city mu
part with that treasure. Bishop Mart
during his late stay in our city expree;
ed himself we'll pleased with the growi
= of Mitchell and from 8 conversatie
which some of our leading citizens bel
l. with him, it is almost certain TIN
ii Mitchell will become the future see
lie south Dakota. She will extend q WI
come reception to Bishop Marty an
will leave nothing undone to secure hi
